Answer:


(3V)/(h)=B

Explanation:

We can solve the formula for B using the following steps:

Step 1: Divide both sides by 1/3. This means we'll need to multiply by the reciprocal (3):


(V=1/3Bh) / (1/3)\\\\(V=1/3Bh)*3\\\\3V=Bh

Step 2: Divide both sides by h to solve the volume formula for B:


(3V=Bh)/h\\\\(3V)/(h)=B

Therefore,
(3V)/(h)=B is the volume of a pyramid solved for the area of the base, B.
